Kyudo me

I picked up a flyer at a local shop I was intrigued by the cover and more interested when I quickly opened to check it and read the title ¨Way of the bow¨ & MASTER KANJURO SHIBATA. I knew this would be some serious Japanese business.

When I got home to read it completely and google the word; I came across the website saying there will be a demonstration of the art. looks pretty cool and worth checking into. Flyer was found at this shop

probably after honeymoon worthly?

how rad is this poster? I want one in my bathroom.

can there be trips like this still?

1000 miles. wow.

see you there!

if I had a Shop it might look like this

pop up shops come and go and sometimes give you that sad temp feeling as you know it just wont last forever... I came across this shop online as I tend to fancy british things and search them out time to time on the world wide web. It was a temporary shop selling a diverse selection of artists’ works, limited editions and original pieces by leading contemporary artists in support of Studio Voltaire. 

I love the art selection and set-up;  I wished I could have walked in an seen some of these beautiful works of art all displayed masterfully to perfection. I discovered I may just get that chance without crossing the big Atlantic Pond. Studio Voltaire has recently announced its participation in INDEPENDENT, a temporary exhibition forum which takes place in the former DIA Center for the Arts, New York (3 – 6 March 2011).  enjoy if you can! it will be worth it indeed!

wrap it with recycle and not more waste

This year my gal and I decided that we wanted to try to `clean office` which meant get rid of some old magazines, print paper,sticker paper, and zine making paper that was lying around rather then go buy more stuff and clutter it all.

I knew it would be a challenge but I got through and think I came out pretty nice.. I hope the person getting thinks so too. , thoughts ?
